"The news that Halifax building society estimates that seven million men have a βhubbyholeβ β a men-only zone where we chaps can escape from the relentless feminisation of modern life β and that another million are planning to join our number in the run-up to the World Cup comes as little surprise to established aficionados of the man cave such as myself."
Judging by the number of people purchasing huge quantities of foreign-label beer in the supermarkets (including one named after, but not made in, the Czech town of Budvar which is allegedly made out of rice) (the beer, not the town) it seems that watching the World Cup has become less of a group activity...
There's an advert for the Australian "amber nectar" where a Feng Shui consultant replaces all the modern furniture with an old armchair, a telly, a fridge and a toilet (not linked to due to commercial content but a "Feng Shui Beer Commercial" search should find it...)
There's no electric in my shed and I haven't watched any World Cup yet. Any man caves or hubby holes out there?
